Simple Winter Inspired Sugar Mold

December 26, 2024 by Kimberly Snyder 9 Comments

Looking for a quick & easy winter decoration? This simple Winter inspired sugar mold is the perfect solution!

I actually made this simple Winter inspired sugar mold as a Christmas decoration.  One of my goals this year is to repurposing, reusing and refreshing things I already have.   As I was transitioning from Holiday to winter decor, I decided that this sugar mold could work as a decoration throughout the winter season.

Today, I am sharing how easy it was to design!

Let’s get started!

How To Design a Winter Inspired Sugar Mold

But First -What is A Sugar Mold?

Before granulated sugar came on the market, it was sold to consumers in cone shapes.  A sugar mold was used to form the sugar into the cone shapes.

Now they are used as fun, home decor pieces. Sugar molds come in all different sizes.  I may have a slight sugar mold problem! I have two 6-hole ones (one white, one natural), a 3 hole one and one that just has one hole.  Pictured below is my 3 hole one that I decorated as a prototype for a wedding centerpiece for my best friend’s daughter.

All of my sugar molds are reproduction pieces.

In addition to a few silk flowers and a bit of greenery, all you need is some ribbon!  This burlap ribbon is decorated with red berries.  It is perfect to use throughout winter.

I simply cut strips of ribbon 12 inches long and used them to add a bit of flair to this white hydrangea 3 hole sugar mold. So simple!

One More Thing you might need!

A pair of bolt cutters is a handy tool to have.  I use mine when I need to cut the stems of my faux flowers shorter or I need to cut a silk flower bush apart! 

Looking Ahead to Spring!

A Few More Ideas for Everyday

One of the smaller sugar molds can be used to hold your tv remote.  A sugar mold can be used in your office to hold pens, pencils, scissors, etc.  Makeup brushes could be stored in a sugar mold in your bathroom.  In the kitchen, you could use the sugar mold to hold silverware or utensils.

I don’t talk about my faith a lot. I do believe I don’t talk about my faith a lot.  I do believe God puts certain people in your path for a reason.  An example of this occurred on Tuesday.  It was colonoscopy/sigmoidoscopy day.  I was really nervous about how it would all work since it was my first time since I had my cancer surgery. 

 The nurse that was taking care of me in the pre op area turned out to be the same nurse who had prayed for me last year. My husband was in the parking lot of the medical center speaking with his friend who happened to work at the center with this particular nurse. I was very sick at the time and they prayed for my healing.  It was great to be able to thank her in person and let her see that the prayers had been answered. ❤️

Then the anesthesiologist came in and told me about his cousin who had also been diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer about a year ago. He mentioned some of the treatments his cousin had had and how important a positive attitude is.  I was touched that he took the time to tell me about his cousin’s experience. 

 We had arranged in advance to have my husband’s friend as the nurse anesthesist.  He was able to pray with us as well as reassure us about the procedure.

The procedure went well. The three polyps that the surgeon removed were sent to pathology.  The report is already back and there no evidence of cancer.  Prayers were answered again❤️
